    Maybe you should watch/listen to PMQ and see if the PM ever gives an answer to difficult questions that actually relates to the question, rather than just accepting the edited highlights served up like a communion wafer to the faithful.
    You appear to be labouring under the misapprehension that I'm a Tory supporter - far from it.

    The situation in THoC was showboating. Zahawi being sacked wasn't caused by the ridiculous events on Wednesday at PMQs.

    Looks like it worked. I’m waiting for the reply of “but Jeremy Corbyn…, but the EU…, but remoaners…”
    Have your handlers told you how to spin this yet?

    An excellent use of PMQ time. Political showboating at its worst.

    Gone!

    Rishi Sunak has sacked the Conservative party chair, Nadhim Zahawi, after he was found to have breached the ministerial code over his tax affairs.
    The former chancellor has faced extensive questions in parliament and the media after it emerged he agreed to pay millions to HMRC following a settlement with the tax department.

    In a letter to the Tory party chair, Sunak said the ethics adviser, Sir Laurie Magnus, had concluded there was a “serious breach” of the ministerial code. “As a result, I have informed you of my decision to remove you from your position in His Majesty’s Government,” he said.

    Shows how inept the Official Opposition Shadow Cabinet are. There are times when it appears that LABOUR don't want the top job.
